Title: Embedding undecalcified bone in polymethyl methacrylate: an improved method. Author: Hand NM. Journal: Br J Biomed Sci; 1996 Sep; 53(3):238-40. PubMed ID: 8914353. Abstract: A number of improvements are described for the preparation of resin sections of undecalcified bone embedded in polymethyl methacrylate. Based on a modified resin mix, the modifications, which include a specially designed block clamp, have resulted in a simplified and quicker procedure with improved section quality. The method has been used routinely for investigating approximately 10,000 cases of metabolic bone disease for diagnostic purposes.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
